Can you define racial justice and equality? I take it you don't agree with BLM's list of demands? So what conditions need to be met? What has to happen for there to be sufficient racial justice and equality?
I keep asking for EXACT examples of "systemic racism" in today's world from our left friends and crickets!

It is a Media/Democrat created lie, that's why there are no examples. Created to be a scary sound bite. The Left are disgusting liars and propagandists.

No riots. No violence. Many people were coming out for their first protest ever.

Every town and city in my area had their own array of protests. My hometown in Georgia had its largest protest ever. The last time such a large group of people came out was when white supremacists marched on my town in 1987. Even Oprah showed up to cover it.

Turn off Fox News.

The questions asked in the survey mentioned protests only.

If Gallup want to cut and run with that, it's their poll and they can do as they like.

A more probing and meaningful poll would have asked questions about attacks on police, looting and destruction of property.

No, you can’t quite straight up infer that. I generally support protesters decoupled from their beliefs, because I get mighty proud just seeing the rights being used and applied as intended. Whether or not I am thrilled about what they are protesting is a completely separate, and almost unrelated question in my mind.
